1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Increasing HIV testing and counselling (HTC) is a first step to reducing HIV transmission. Implementing HTC in family planning (FP) clinics has been proposed to increase HIV testing coverage in at-risk populations. The Systems Analysis and Improvement Approach (SAIA) was used to improve HTC rates in FP clinics in Mombasa, Kenya. This hypothesis-generating exploratory analysis evaluated the associations between organizational climate characteristics, organizational readiness for implementing change, and successful implementation of HTC. Surveys were conducted with clinic managers and staff from FP clinics implementing SAIA to increase HTC. Likert-style questions were used to characterize organizational climate metrics and organizational readiness for implementing change (ORIC). Linear regression was performed to examine the association between organizational climate metrics, ORIC domains, and two FP client outcomes: 1) percentage of clients receiving pre-HIV test counseling, and 2) percentage of clients tested for HIV. Eleven clinic staff and 10 clinic managers completed the surveys. For clinic staff, higher innovation and flexibility scores were associated with higher change commitment (β = 0.20, CI 0.09-0.31, p = 0.001) and change efficacy (β = 0.17, CI 0.07-0.26, p = 0.002). Higher clinic manager scores for innovation and flexibility were associated with a higher change commitment (β = 0.44, CI 0.04-0.84, p = 0.03). Additionally, clinic managers' scores for management support (β = 0.25, CI 0.06-0.45, p = 0.01), commitment to facility (β = 0.78, CI 0.60-0.96, p = 0.001), and relative priority (β = 0.24, CI 0.08-0.39, p = 0.004) were positively associated with higher change commitment and change efficacy. In contrast, clinic managers' scores for tradition were negatively associated with change commitment (β = -0.38, CI -0.75-0.01, p = 0.05). Clinic staff perceptions of management support were positively associated with the proportion of clients counseled for HIV testing (β = 1.20, CI 0.08-2.32, p = 0.04). Support from leadership and innovation/flexibility are important predictors of change commitment and change efficacy. Strong management support may increase the likelihood of successful implementation of SAIA to improve HTC.
